Sorc'henn - Silvestrig

Sorc'henn
Silvestrig (Tavarn Keben bes44)
CDr edition of 71

My first in a series of Sorc'henn posts, Silvestrig is one long track (actually not called Silvestrig but Grand Goat-Heads Processing Choir and it makes more sense). It reminds me of some William Basinski's work, quite minimal and repetitive but carrying a lot of feeling and conjuring vivid images. You can easily imagine you're lost in some strange forest and you chance upon a equally strange ritual performed by goat-headed individuals... if you get my meaning.

Plainly said, it's really darn good music, buy a copy if you find one, you won't be disappointed!

Sorc'henn is Laurent B. main project, and Silvestrig was released on his own Tavarn Keben label in 2008. More to follow.

Ajilvsga - The Black Mouth Society

Ajilvsga
The Black Mouth Society (Tavarn Keben bes34 - 2009)
C60 Edition of 60 hand-numbered copies with hand-made cover

The A-side of this tape, The Black-Tailed Deer, is without doubt my favourite Ajilvsga track (at the moment anyway...). Everything is perfect with this release : 2 great long tracks, superb artwork (if not very convenient), it's released on Laurent/Sorc'henn excellent label Tavarn Keben and last but not least it's recorded on orange cassettes (who can resist orange!).

For once, this one is still available at the source, but I couldn't wait to share it with you : I'm sure more than one will buy it after listening to those mp3s!
